The ICC2-ATSC HDTV Tuner is an integrated HDTV tuner/controller that networks HD display monitors and
projectors in an iC-Net and SignStream display control system. As a universal TV tuner, the ICC2-ATSC can
receive ATSC, NTSC, and clear QAM cable channels from an MATV antenna or CATV cable RF system.
The tuner displays broadcasts through simultaneous HDMI, RGB/Component, and NTSC composite video or
connections. Full-time audio is available from digital Dolby 5.1/PCM/Variable PCM HDMI, optical, and coax
ports, as well as variable-level analog stereo audio outputs.

DIGITAL TUNING OF CABLE Channels
Symptom: Channel ID is in XX-XX form, not cable box Guide form



Cable boxes translate the actual channel #s into a virtual Channel Guide, using channels 2
– 900, or more.
The actual (physical) channels have IDs in XXX-XX form, just like off-air channels. Noncable HDTV tuners like the ATSC or LCD TVs don’t provide Guide features, so the channels
will be displayed in their native, physical major-minor channel form.
Some cable franchisees have a listing by physical channel, many do not. You can press the
INFO button on the HD2-RC remote to view the channel name.
Symptom: The tuner found the Channel, but the screen is blank when tuned in


If the channel is scrambled, the screen will be blank, and a “SCRAMBLED” message will
appear on the screen. That means the channel is not Clear QAM.
Cable companies scramble all premium channels, while local HD and some basic channels
may or may not be scrambled, depending on the local cable provider.
o The best approach is to call the cable provider and ask for Engineering.
They can give you a list of clear QAM channels, complete with major-minor
channel numbers. That way, you know what can be tuned before you install
(and when you design the system).
o With that list, you could skip scanning and enter the channel numbers manually in
the tuner.
 Type in the Physical # of the channel, plus a – and 1. That way, the tuner
knows to look for a digital channel. Usually, the major number of a cable
channel is its physical channel
 When the tuner finds the channel, it will add all associated sub-channels
 Go to the onscreen Menu/Channels/Add-Delete. Move through the list of
sub-channels, using Enter to Delete any scrambled channels
o If you already scanned the channels, and have long list of scrambled channels, you
can erase scanned digital channels by using the D0=3, and T^ RS-232 commands.
This will scan analog channels and delete any digital channels in the scan list so
you have a clean slate for tuning.
POWER/VIDEO OUTPUT
Symptom: Tuner appears to be on, channel display is lit, but unresponsive, no video/audio out


This often occurs when a 232-ATSC is used to replace an old 232-series analog tuner.
The solution is to not use the old 500 Ma power supply, and use the 1.5 Amp power supply that
comes with the ATSC. The old supply has enough juice to light up the front panel LEDs, but nothing
else.
Symptom: No video on Component Out

The RGB and Component outputs are switchable, and the tuner ships set to RGB. Use Front Panel
Mode, next section to switch the HD analog video to Component.
6
HDMI
Symptom: No Video or Signal



Most monitors accept HDMI in the RGB and Component color space, but there are exceptions. Try
switching from RGB to Component (Front panel mode 48).
Switch between 720p and 1080i, or down to 480P or 480i for old DVI sets. (Front panel mode 49)
If you’re connecting via a Cat5 interface, HDMI receiver, or switcher, some delay the HDCP signal
slightly out of range. Call CR Support on how to extend the delay on HDMI.
Symptom: No audio or fluttering sound in display speakers connected via HDMI
Change ATSC digital audio to PCM or PCM variable (most displays do not use Dolby 5.1)
RGB/Component
Symptom: No RGB or Component Video output
Check the RGB or Component output setting in Front Panel mode 48 (48.0 is RGB, 48.2 is Component).
Symptom: No output display on VGA input
Some monitors or projectors do not support 1080i or 720P operation on the RGB port. Set resolution in
Front Panel mode 49 (49.2 for 480P).
Composite Video
Symptom: Composite video out has small image in 16:9 setting, analog channels




For a 4:3 set, tune to an analog channel and press RATIO on the remote to set to 16:9. Image will
fill left to right, you’ll always have a black band top and bottom.
Set to 4:3 if you’re only feeding video to 4:3 TVs.
Set output ratio on a digital channel as well - this a different setting than for analog channels.
If the tuner is used for 16:9 displays and analog TVs, choose the best setting for the widescreen,
and the NTSC will have to be a compromise. Most of the time, setting the RATIO while tuned to an
analog channel and again for a digital channel will provide the best result.
IR Control
Symptom: IR remote won’t control tuner
Hold down IR remote Select, press 9, and release both. Front-panel setting should be 15.9. In addition,
check if the remote works when the lights are off. Some energy-saving fluorescent lights produce
interference at our IR frequency (57 Hz). Try to cover the IR sensor so the lights don’t affect operation, or
add the IR-RXC External IR Sensor. It’s easier to hide and tilt the sensor to help with reception, and you can
try Select and 4 to use the lower IR frequency (the RXC has both types of sensors).
Line 21 (analog) Captioning on Video Output
Symptom: Video out does not include captioning
The 232-ATSC does not carry forward closed captioning codes when tuned to an analog channel. However,
all captioning from digital TV channels is converted to analog captioning on the video output.

The ICC2-ATSC supports a mix of setup tools, including:




HD2-RC Remote Mode (accesses On-Screen Graphic Menus and special HD functions)
IC-RC Remote Mode (accesses Text Menus and special media functions)
Front-Panel Setup
IC-Net commands from system or iC Send
The reason for the options is that the ICC2-ATSC is designed to offer advanced analog/digital
tuning, yet be compatible with existing iC-Net systems.
IR Remote Operation
The IC-RC Remote is used with analog tuners as well as media and text menu control functions
when used in iC-Net control systems. The HD2-RC IR Remote is designed for control and setup of
ATSC-series HDTV tuners. Both remotes send the same IR codes, the difference is in how the
tuner responds.
In most cases, IC-Net systems, especially for schools and other applications that access on-screen
text menus and interactive media control, will continue to use the traditional IC-RC remote and
mode.
System integrators can switch the ICC2-ATSC to the HD2-RC mode to access HD features, such as
channel scans and set up of 16:9 or 4:3 display modes. Then switch to IC mode to test iC-net
operation and IC-Net device number.
Front-Panel Setup
The Front Panel modes are useful for setting tune mode, HD output and resolution, and switching
between IC and HD2 remote modes.
IC Send Control
You’ll find the free IC Send program to be a great tool for system setup and testing, especially if
the site is using the ICE-HE Head End and your laptop is configured for the site’s network. You can
also use a PC or laptop via RS-232 with the ICC-HE Head End. Key functions include:




On, Off and Tune commands to test operation to one or all ICC2-ATSC units.
IR Mode. Switch all tuners to IC or HD2 modes.
Channel Setup. Use the T^ Command to force all units to scan channels, then use the XA
and XD commands to add and remove channels from the list. If you’re using RS-232
control at the head end, have an ICC2-ATSC at that location to check your setup.
Tuner Setup. Use LM and TM commands to configure general tuner operation.

The following chart includes the current control codes for many brands and types of video displays. While a
manufacturer code set will control virtually all models in a given type or series, there are differences that arise,
most commonly for baud rate, input selection, and options for internal tuner control. In addition, some models
(especially for plasmas) may be OEM’ed from another supplier and use a different control code.
CR maintains a constantly-updated database on display makes and models – call our support team to confirm
the best solution for your application.

You can tune to a channel you want to delete, then press
Menu/Channel/Add-Delete. Press Select to delete the channel.
You can also keep the page on screen as you step through
channels, adding and deleting as desired. If the channel has a
good signal, it will be displayed in the background.
Note that HDTV channels are broadcast on UHF frequencies.
The Add/Delete will show the name of the digital channel, as
well as the actual UHF channel used for broadcasting.
You can delete one of a digital channel’s sub-channels without
affecting the others.
Signal Strength
This page also displays from the Signal remote command. The
graphic shows the current signal strength, and changes in real
time. This allows you to monitor the strength of a channel as
you adjust the antenna for best reception.

Overview
RS-232 control for up to 4000 TV Controllers is provided through an iC-series Head-End Network
Controller. The ICE-HE Ethernet Head End and ICC-HE Head End manage iC-Net communication
over RF Coax to ICC1 (1-way) and ICC2 (2-Way) TV Controllers.
Each TV Controller is assigned a unique device number from 1 to 4000 to which control
commands are addressed. The devices are organized into 16 zones of 255 devices. All the devices
in each zone will respond to a single “virtual device number” — one device number that
represents all devices in each zone. There is also a global device number, 4095, that will
command all devices in the system. This feature dramatically speeds up system operation and
programming, because one command can affect an entire group of devices—or all. To take
advantages of this feature, review the section iC-Net SmartZones in this manual.
In ABC-Net, we reserve the first group of devices, 1-255, for components operating on a
connected control system. Zones 1-16 are used for CR TV Controllers, Video Display Controllers
and Tuners. As it’s unlikely any system will use all 4000 devices, this may be a good device
standard for your system as well.
The Remote RS-232 port on the Head-End Network Controller can communicate from 1200 to
38.4K baud. The factory default setting is 19.2K baud, 8 data bits, No parity, and 1 stop bit.
Command String Structure
Characters in command strings are expressed in a combination of hex and ASCII characters. For
clarity, the following protocol examples use the following conventions:







Single-byte hex numbers are preceded by the ‘$’ symbol
ASCII characters or strings are enclosed in single quotes
Numbers not marked as hex or ASCII are a single decimal byte
Parameters shown in < > brackets are single byte
A series of multiple commands or parameters are set apart by [ ] brackets
Commas separate the bytes, but are not part of the protocol
Double quotes enclose the command string, but are not part of the protocol
Command format:
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,<ncb>,<cmd1>,<parameter> [<cmdN>]"
$A5
<dh>
<dl>
<ncb>
<cmd1>
<parameter>
[<cmdN>]
Starts the command
The zone or high order byte of the device*
The unit or low order byte of the device (0 for global zone)
The number of command bytes to follow
The first command byte
Command parameters (not used by all commands)
Multiple commands can be concatenated, with byte count added to <ncb>
* iC-Net devices are arranged with a zone mindset. For example, a command sent to Device 256, which
triggers all the units in Zone 1, would be expressed as $A5, 1, 0 (first zone, device zero). A command sent to
257 would be $A5, 1, 1 (first zone, device 1 in the zone). See iC-Net SmartZones toward the end of this
manual.

“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,<ncb>,‘DM’, <start line>,<text color>,<text background color>,
<screen background>,<size and shadow>,<timeout>,<message bytes>” (variable
bytes)
Clears current text, displays text message over video (default) or blank
background. The built-in character generator can accept up to 40 characters of
text (including carriage returns), 28 characters per line. Use a hex $0D or decimal
13 in the text as a carriage return, which will advance CG to the next line, first
space on the right.
Start Line - 1-9
Text Color - 1-7= White
Text Background Color – 0-7=Transparent (no background)
Full screen background – 0=normal insert over video
Size and Shadow – 0-3=small text with drop shadow
Time-Out – 0=15-second display, 1=persistent
Persistent text stays on screen until the next DM, or new Menu or channel.
Ex1: “$A5,<dh>,<dl>,10,‘DM’, 2,7,0,0,1,0,’TEST’ ” displays the word TEST on the
second line, white text, inserted over video, small size with drop shadow, and
timing out after 15 seconds.
Ex2: “$A5,<dh>,<dl>,2,‘DM’ ” clears on-screen display, also clears persistent text
Return
EB
Text Timeout
DQ
The ATSC uses white text and clear backgrounds when it receives a Text or
Background Color parameter between 1 and 7, and accepts values 0-3 for text size
and shadow. This allows compatibility with Smart TVs mixed in the same system
that can display other colors and fonts.
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,2,’EB’ ” (6 bytes)
Moves cursor down to the first column of the next row.
“$A5,<dh>,<dl>,3,’DQ’, <time>” (7 bytes)
Sets screen timeout to specified time in seconds (1-254). If time is 0 or 255, any
text on the screen will persist indefinitely, or until cleared.

In the front-panel setup instructions, you set the Unit # (1-255), then the Zone # (1-15). This refers to the
iC-Net address structure that includes device number 256 – 4095 that is divided up into 15 Zones.
To simplify controlling groups of devices, iC-Net is divide,d into 15 zones of 255 devices, called SmartZones. All
the devices within each zone can be controlled simultaneously by sending a command to a single virtual device
number.
For example, noting the zone chart below, if we send a Power On command to device #256, all iC-Net
controllers in Zone 1 will turn off at the same time.
This is an immensely powerful feature, because most systems can only address one device at time. If you need
to turn off all 50 TV in a zone, you would need to send 50 commands. In addition to the hassles of creating
multiple commands, there would be a long delay between the first and last command. One command, instant
response is easier.
The Zone number plus the Unit number equals the actual device address.

While many applications can use just the Zone number, it’s a good practice to assign a unique Unit
number to each controller in the zone. This allows the system software to address individual controllers
if necessary.
25
One of the key tasks for iC-Net integrators is to create a logical System Map, assigning device numbers to TV
controllers so they fall into physical zones useful to the client. The device mapping could be sorted by type or
location; whichever suits the application.
